The Rolex GP of the first five star event at Spruce Meadows in Calgary (Canada) this year was won by the man in top form Kent Farrington aboard Voyeur, the horse that he also placed fifth on in the Aachen GP last week. Tolano vh Riethof, the father of Voyeur, is AES approved. Farrington’s compatriote Reed Kessler placed second, just like last year during the Masters in September. The third place went to Mexican Jaime Azcarraga on Anton , an eleven-year-old AES gelding. FIve of over fifty horses jumped double clear.

During the stallion show of the DSC-Group in Schijndel (NL) that followed the schedule of the continental AES spring stallion grading, Elite stallion Marome NW was honored and awarded the AES stallion of the year. The 21-year-old stallion is bred by Willy Sidorak and owned by Fam. Bruggink.   Marome NW competed in the past at the highest level under Gert-Jan Bruggink. The duo won the Dutch Championship for Young Riders in 2002. In addition, the fantastic jumping Marome NW placed for Zwolle, Aarhus, Madrid, Mannheim, La Baule, Rotterdam, Den Bosch and Geesteren. The combination also won the 2005 Open Benelux Championship in The Hague. Due to an injury Marome NW  had to leave the sport a little to soon. The AES has to thank it’s 6 th place on the WBFSH final ranking 2014 partly by Marome NW's offspring Andrea and Vampire . The AES registered Marome NW son Anton recently made a number of huge successes under Jaime Azcarraga. This combination won last year at Spruce Meadows the incredible amount of $ 400.000.- and last month, more than $ 350.000 in Thermal, California. The results achieved by offspring of Marome NW in competitive sports are also a very great achievement for breeding given the small number of offspring that this stallion has compared to most other top jumping suppliers. Marome NW is standing at stud at the Dinkelhoeve in Denekamp (NL). There is both fresh and frozen semen available, the stud fee for 2015 is only € 850.- www.dinkelhoeve.com
